21 of your most asked questions about RVing in a Motorhome

[@rvpilgrims]

Nathan, the segment on towing or not towing was brilliant. We've decided to take a small motorhome to Alaska rather than towing our house up there. Thanks so much!!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

We love that we could help you make a decision! You're going to love Alaska!

[@Lisa_B.-1989]

I was raised to never get in the clean sheets with a dirty body, so YES! …we ALWAYS clean up first. I could never sleep dirty! You are not alone!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

I'm learning I'm very not alone here!

[@charlenecastaldo3602]

Night showerer to wash all the dirt and allergies of the day off before getting into clean sheets is wonderful. We never walk around when our motorhome is moving. It's too easy to stop, then do whatever we need to do. Thanks guys! Stay safe and have fun.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

yes! team shower before bed! Most definitely, everyone seems to be different when it comes to motorhomes.

[@marywesterbeke1490]

We downsized from a 39 ft Class A to a 25 ft Class C for 2 retirees. The change has been so worth it for ease of set up and tear down and ability to get into smaller sites. It has also decreased the fatigue factor of driving a big rig. We use satellite view on Google maps to scope out parking in shopping areas and restaurants. We try to do our grocery and laundry and errand stops before going to campsite at the end of the day. We had a washer dryer before but I don't miss it at all. We have been on the road 3-4 months at a time without getting stir crazy.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That sounds perfect! Like the right balance.

[@pamking8137]

Totally agree with you Marissa! Cannot go to bed without a shower! Hubs is the same way!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Yes!! All the evening showers!

[@violingirl1349]

lol! I 100% agree with all you’re saying! A few years ago our family travelled across Canada from Alberta to Nova Scotia and back in 6 weeks in a 32 foot class C with 4 kids. (That was as short as we could go with 6 people!). I loved having a HUGE front bunk overhang for our two boys, plus a bunk bed in the middle of the motorhome for our two girls, plus a queen bed in the back for us. We’d stay two nights max at each place and, yes, we’d often call ahead the day of and get a site for the night. We’d just make sure to stock up on groceries before parking for the night, and plan laundry along the way. It was such a great trip! The memories, the family time, the adventure! So worth it all! Then this past January we lived on Vancouver island for three weeks in our 33 foot bumper pull trailer (with 5 kids!). Yep, super different mentality. But also a great memory-making adventure! ☺️ Thanks for sharing all your tips and tricks! Love you guys! (Btw, I’ve been watching you guys and getting tips and tricks on how to travel full time since we first travelled for three weeks in a ‘89 Triplee motorhome with three kids 4 and under back in 2015 ☺️ ❤ (we don’t travel full time, but when we travel it’s for 2-6 weeks at a time))

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

my goodness, you really know how to travel for your needs! Love this so much and how you switch it up for what your vacation goals are - this is perfect!

[@rockd7142]

Loved your video about the lineage. One thing I did not see addressed is how hard is it to park while in a city or tourist location that is not a national park.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

It's actually great! Since it's so small, and even the whole body is smaller than a classic. Class C, we fit comfortably in regular parking spots width-wise, then we just give extra room front to back... parking the Dually seems to need more space 😂

[@sherriweber7105]

These were good questions to ask. I agree that if you tow a vehicle with a class C it would be hard to pull with it and harder to fit in smaller space at campgrounds. I would do that too! Also with the washing clothes at laundromat while on the road is a great idea and or at the campground. I take one shower a day and that’s because of the pollen outside. Or anything else out there. Nice the dinette can fit a tall person as well. And your king bed. Nice that Hensley has a privacy curtain. It’s nice to it doesn’t take you long to set up and tare down. I’m loving the Lineage. Thank you for this video! Stay safe and safe travels. Have a great week and see you soon!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

It really has checked all the boxes we need for our fast travel seasons - we truly love it. For full time living, we love our Solitude

Like yourselves, and many others who've commented, we are also night shower people. I do like the floor plan of this model you're testing. Who knows if a motor RV might be in our future. We have no little ones, they're long grown. But LOVED the iron curtain and the sweet humor of it. Legend!

[@marthatroyer3021]

We have a 25 ft motorhome and love the nmbleness of it. Plus, we have a kitchen and bath everywhere we go. We book about 24 hours out so our schedule is very flexible. No toad and no desire to pull anything behind us.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Yes!! This is why we love it for these seasons of our travel! It's so handy to be this small.

[@DisabledNomads]

We timed ourselves once. Even in our decrepit old age with mobility issues, it takes us no longer than 15-20 min to pack and hit the road. That's while taking our time. We pack the exterior stuff the night before (dump tanks, stow the stinky slinky, pull in the awning, pack any camp chairs and tables, etc.). While he's doing that I'm packing what I can in the interior. In the morning all I have to do is last minute stuff like any vent fans and settle the pets while he pulls the water and power. That can be done in 10 minutes.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That sounds like some amazing team work! You’ve definitely got your flow and rhythm and make it work 😊

[@ScubaDude284]

I am the same way about a shower before bed. Nothing like feeling clean and crawling into bed. I also shower in the mornings so it’s 2 showers a day for me. We have been full time for over 4 years and my routine has stayed the same.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That's amazing! double-up!

[@BethNichol2025]

I loved your hand drawn chart Nate, along with the explanation. We are not full time, just started being able to take trips between 3 - 4 weeks long. Both ways would work for us depending on the trip, sites, and length of time. I always shower in the morning. If full hook ups I will also shower at night. Otherwise it is a sponge bath/wash cloth clean up at night.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

It's always easier to explain in a diagram than with just words - so glad it was helpful

[@imaginetravelsGD]

Glad to see the iron curtain is working . We walked thru the Lineage models in Hershey and they seemed even smaller in person. We have a 26 foot Imagine and feel spoiled on space compared to them. With that said I could still get behind the ease of travel for short periods of time. How is the mattress, having to fold it to bring the slide in would make it hard to put a decent one in.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

It does make it hard for long term, so we keep the tiny travel to specific travel seasons. The mattress has been good, it's not my Brooklyn Bedding mattress, but it does the trick!

[@Powerstroke98]

Well, back again...use to never miss a video, but the last time I was watching, you had your pickup and HUGE 5th wheel, so I have lots to catch up on!

[@ladikmk]

Jason, I really appreciated your description of traveling in a class C like a wagon wheel. That made loads of sense. The kids were so cute bringing the bedding to you in the laundromat Marissa, and I definitely agree with utilising a campground that has laundry facilities but if not, then there's always an alternative. I'm a night-shower girl too. A clean body makes that bedding stay clean so much longer = less laundry lol. Thanks for sharing - great video!

I keep stuff from falling using simple netting. Inside the fridge I added hooks and the net goes from shelf to shelf. When you stop you open it, unhook and roll the net up to the top.

I have a 20’ TT . It’s perfect size for me and my dogs. I pull with full size truck. My problem with MH is it has a motor therefore it is higher insurance. It is taller in height, so you are limited from low clearance areas (ie. Parking garages, low overpasses, trees) . I can still find parking spaces when pulling because I’m only the length of 2 cars. If you’re out on the road and you’re MH breaks down, as you said your jeep did, then you have to get a hotel room until repairs are made. Where as with the trailer I still have my “home “ . These are just my opinions that I think about in looking at MH for myself.

Nathan, great job on describing the differences in mindsets between a trailer and a small motorhome. We've done both, and neither is 'better' than the other. They're just different. A 25' motorhome can fit in a lot of places that a larger fifth wheel can't, but there are lots of places where you can take a 4x4 truck but not a 25' motorhome. The motorhome is more convenient on the road, but the price tag is much higher. And so on. But you did a great job summarizing!👍

I can sleep in my pickup (I have a very tall cap) for a couple of nights so that helps things. Keep the good stuff coming.

[@monicapharo2330]

@@LessJunkMoreJourney first of all, the Foretravel was a huge problematic lemon 🍋. Mostly used for lengthy tailgating collegiate football games. My husband mainly drove it and fueling it and parking it was challenging. Once our scope changed from weekend tailgating to pleasure traveling, I did tons of research to decide what our style of travel would be. My priorities were *easy * fueling at regular stations vs truck stops * I wanted propane and solar which the 45’ was all electric * fitting into a regular parking space * having everything that you need, but no extra space… it’s ALL a matter of ‘trade-offs’… I’ve been a subscriber from day 1, love you guys … we also now have a nice climate controlled metal building / Barndominium that we house our beloved Unity MB to keep it nice and protected from Hurricanes. We are south of I-10 in SE Louisiana. A MUST for us was the diesel generator. Since the engine is diesel, it makes sense to us to always have generator power in our HOT climate. As preppers for bad weather events, we keep a home elevated tank of several hundred gallons of diesel. This is our back-up to our back-ups. We were without power for 15 days in 2021 with Cat 5 Ida. Our whole home generator failed after day 6 and the RV was our salvation.

I like being able to get up and go to the bathroom when I need to or get something to eat or drink without stopping. I always hold onto something while moving around. I won't drive it though as it seems really daunting. I probably would drive a class C though. I have no idea what the washer and dryer trick is...lol, I tried looking it up but nothing. We don't have kids so its not a problem.

Prayers your home base weathered the storm. Missed your content while you came thru WA State. We're in ELECTRIC CITY WA 99123... If you get the chance to come back, the Coulee Dam, Banks Lake, Dry Falls high dessert is like a mini grand canyon and complete opposite of rain forests and coasts. If you get this way again, we have parking and hook ups! Prayers for you and yours.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you, our family is ok. We will need to add that to our list next time

[@nana23boyz3]

How are your families in Tennessee after the storm? Hope all are well.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you for reaching out, our families are ok.

Everyone sort of figures out what works for them I think and there's a lot of trial and error in the process. I have a 26 foot class C, and my 'toad' is a 150cc type scooter I hitch up on the back. Great for taking off and running around local areas. I've camped on BLM land just outside national/state parks and rode that scooter around the national park to explore. I also frequently stay in cities, urban camping as they say, and this configuration works well for that. But then I'm just one person.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That sounds like a great set up! It's true, it's all so dependent on each person/family.

How did you fare with the OCCC of 1026? Did you weigh yourself once loaded?

[@exploringtheholos]

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

[@kellybryson7754]

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Great video.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JCMercyGrace]

So I searched your videos and the only thing I found regarding washing machine hack was in this video Doing This To Your RV Will Save You $1,000 A Year Which is to wash bedding in laundry facility machines, not the RV washing machine. Is that it??? (That's what I do too. other wise I need to wash bottom sheet separate from top sheet, and can't wash the bed spread at all. So, laundry facility for bedding is a thing!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

It's true. Our buddy's we take to the laundromat but everything else is washed in the RV (When we're in the solitude).

[@gwwj]

I have a relative who got up for a potty break while the RV was moving. When the driver had to slam on the brakes, she did the superman flight all the way to the front, and ended up looking worse than Frankenstein.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Oh goodness!

[@rosekraemer8205]

Night showers for sure same reason plus kids school my. Job morning showers are out

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Totally understandable.

[@candacegaddis6165]

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

👏👏 Yes! Clean before sleep 😴

[@Cindydidit]

Nite showers keep the sheets cleaner😊

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

🎉🎉 true story! Makes my laundry job easier too

Have you heard from your friends and family in east Tenn.? The mountains in Tenn. and North Carolina have been devastated, I assume you have seen the pictures and videos from the area. It is going to take months to get the power back on, and years to fix the roads and bridges. They need our prayers.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

We have seen. It’s beyond devastating. And we have to keep every single person impacted in our prayers and help in every way we can.

[@daciaclewis]

@@LessJunkMoreJourney The minute I saw the devastation, I thought of you. I remember the tornado that ripped through your hometown, it was really bad too. I live in Eastern North Carolina where hurricanes are a common thing, but it's not easy. To see our mountains like I've seen our coast is heart wrenching. I know you've been to the Outer Banks, take a look at the homes that have fallen into the ocean just this year. Unreal! Take care, and thanks for listening.
